I found all this I'm gonna be posting on the same day. This cellar is full of goodies and unfortunately some snakes that I put elsewhere. Anyway, I'm just gonna post a few at a time as I clean them up a bit. Thanks for looking and good luck out there! :)

I was already a couple hours into my dig when I found the first one. I know my snakes pretty well and they were all non poisonous. Just used a stick and put them in another whole. They were super slow anyway. It was too cold for them. Maybe y'all will think it was worth it when I finally finish cleaning and posting everything. That is if you are into relics and bottles. Those are my main two passions. Thanks for looking and good luck out there.

Either napalm or a bigger weedeater than I have..

Hard to believe that all those buggers can find enough to eat .........................

That's a LOT of 22 shells - more than you can find nowdays.

Thanks for all the replies. This is gonna sound terrible, but I had my .45 ACP with me and the only reason I didn't use it was because there are way too many cool bottles :) so I was nice and relocated them instead.

Those get me every time. The big ones I have ( not sure if I have posted yet ) are presidential coins. I was wondering if you have ever seen one of those small 5 cent toy tokens? I can't find anything on them. Thanks for the help.

The first pic is actually the back of the second pic. Wish it wasn't so messed up. It looks like it used to be really cool looking. I guess a decorative brooch.
